Reviving a Dying Sedum: Winter Watering Reduction and Superthrive

Likely ID: Sedum (Stonecrop)

400+ species; many sold as "succulent collections." Winter dormancy = minimal water.

Immediate Corrections

• Stop weekly watering. Water only when soil is bone-dry (may be monthly in winter).
• Bright light: South window or grow light.
• Superthrive at label rate to stimulate root recovery.
• 1/2 strength fertilizer if new growth appears in spring.

Propagation Backup

Sedums root easily from stem cuttings. Snip healthy tips, callus 3 days, plant in moist grit. Insurance against total loss.
